E-AuthenticationThe E-Authentication initiative, one of the President's E-Government Initiatives, is creating a single, governmentwide approach to provide more uniform identity management across government. Interoperability among multiple identity management products enables an agency to identify and select the one that best fits its system and to save money. The E-Authentication E-Gov initiative is setting the standards for the identity proofing of individuals and businesses. E-Authentication will focus on meeting the authentication business needs of E-Gov initiatives by building the necessary infrastructure to support common processes and systems for governmentwide use. E-Authentication's mission is to enable trust—an inherent part of every online exchange between citizens and the government.
